Although the female beggar screamed very loudly, the passers-by seemed to have grown accustomed to it and didn't even bother to watch.
But when the beggar's plan failed, she tried another plan and opened her mouth to bite Li Qiang's hand.
Unexpectedly, Li Qiang had already seen through her intention, and with just a slight twist, he clasped her hands behind her back and pressed them firmly against the wall.
This frightened the little beggar who had been pestering Li Qiang before. He ran away with a cry of "Oh my God", and the female beggar immediately became so angry that he cursed loudly.
After cursing for nearly five minutes, the female beggar finally calmed down.
"You're scolding me! Why don't you continue scolding me?"
"I'm tired, can't I take a break?"
"Oh, you have quite a personality! Tell me!"
The female beggar couldn't help being stunned after hearing this, "What did you say?"
"Do you want me to take you to the police station or the Pole Gang?"
As soon as these words came out, the expression on the female beggar's face instantly changed from disdain at the beginning to shock, with a hint of fear at the same time.
"What, are you scared?"
"Who is scared? My aunt went out today and didn't read the almanac. I'll admit it if I fall into your hands. I'll just do whatever I want."
"Well, from beginning to end, just this sentence is quite bachelor." After saying that, Li Qiang let her go, "Okay, you can go."
This time, the female beggar was confused. Although she had imagined several endings in her mind, she never expected that Li Qiang would let her go so easily. She couldn't help but confirm with some disbelief.
: "Are you serious?"
"Otherwise? I don't have time to waste time here with you!"
"Then...I'm leaving!"
"let's go!"
However, at this moment, a hoarse voice rang out, "Want to leave? It's not that easy!"
As soon as these words came out, the female beggar's body froze, and then she seemed to think of something bad, her face turned pale, and she called out tremblingly, "Hu...Brother Hu."
"Yanzi, I don't have a good memory. What did I tell you last time when you stole someone's wallet on the territory of our Gangzhi Gang?"
"Brother Hu, I..."
"Okay, Yanzi, don't say anything. Brother Hu, I have been in this area for so many years, and I rely on what I say. Since you broke my rules, don't blame us!" He said,
The man winked at his subordinates and said viciously, "Take them away!"
"Wait a minute!" Unexpectedly, at this moment, Li Qiang's voice rang out, "Brother Hu, right? Can you take a step to speak?"
After hearing this, the man looked Li Qiang up and down. Seeing that he was very decently dressed and must be a person of status, he nodded in agreement and followed Li Qiang to a secluded corner.
"This...this is..." Looking at the sterling silver copper coin in Li Qiang's hand, the man couldn't help but widen his eyes, because it was a special token that would only be given to those who had experienced the Pole Gang.
A person of great kindness.
"This was given to me by an old friend named Dai many years ago."
Hearing this, the man nodded in understanding, because the old friend named Dai that Li Qiang mentioned was not someone else, he was the previous boss!
After asking clearly about the origin of the token, the man's attitude towards Li Qiang became even more respectful, "May I ask how you call me?"
"I'm really sorry, brother Wang Hu, I can only tell you that my surname is Du."
"You are too polite, just call me Xiaohu. Mr. Du, please bow to Wang Hu!" After saying that, Wang Hu really bowed to Li Qiang deeply.
Li Qiang accepted the bow very calmly, because he knew very well that the bow was not for himself, but for the pure silver coin.
After Wang Hu stood up, Li Qiang continued: "Brother Xiaohu, since you recognize this token, we are a family. To be honest, I am here to help you this time."
"If a family doesn't speak the same language, Mr. Du, if you have anything to do, just give him orders. Everyone in the pole gang should go all out and fight to the death."
"It's not that serious. Here's the thing. I plan to buy a batch of electronic components, but for some reason, I don't want others to know, so I want to ask the brothers from the Pole Gang to help me with this."
"Isn't it just buying something? It's a trivial matter!" Wang Hu patted his chest and signed a guarantee.
"With your words, I feel relieved." Li Qiang took out the list and said, "Here, everything I need is on it."
After saying that, as if by magic, two bright and golden gold bars were "conjured", and together with the list, they were thrust into Wang Hu's hand.
"Mr. Du, you...have given me too much, haven't you? This is absolutely unacceptable!"
"What can't I do? The extra money should be treated as a reward for my brothers."
"In that case, I will thank Mr. Du on their behalf."
"That's right!" Having said this, Li Qiang glanced at the female beggar who was too frightened to speak from a distance and said, "I almost forgot, I think that woman is quite pitiful.
Please stop embarrassing her."
"Mr. Du, it's not that I don't give you this face, but I have given her too many opportunities before, and every time I said I wouldn't do it again, but it didn't take long for her to start her old business again. She stole
It doesn’t matter if someone’s wallet is lost, it’s the face of our gang! What’s the point of continuing like this? I really couldn’t bear it, so..."
"You're right, continuing like this is really not the way to go." Having said this, Li Qiang pondered for a moment, and then lowered his voice and said to Wang Hu, "That's good, in a moment you..."
Wang Hu nodded repeatedly after hearing this, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Returning to the female beggar again, Wang Hu warned with a fierce look on his face: "Yanzi, listen carefully. This time, for the sake of Mr. Du interceding for you, I won't argue with you. But
From now on, if you let me bump into you again, regardless of whether you have committed a crime or not, I will chop off your fingers! I will do what I say!"
After saying that, Wang Hu left the female beggar behind and walked away with the others.
"Hey! Why are you so stunned? Isn't everything alright? Why don't you leave quickly?" Looking at the female beggar standing there motionless in a daze, Li Qiang said to her "kindly".
However, the female beggar smiled bitterly and asked: "Let's go? Where to go? It's not like you didn't hear what Brother Hu just said. The entire Fengtian is the territory of the Gangzi Gang, where else can I go?"
"I have a good place to go, but you have to answer a few questions first."
"You?" The female beggar glanced at Li Qiang doubtfully, then nodded and agreed, "Okay, you ask! What's the question?"
That female beggar is not stupid. Even a ruthless character like Wang Hu wants to sell Li Qiang's face, which shows that he must have a good background, so he agreed so readily.
Li Qiang smiled and said: "This is not the place to talk. Come with me."
After that, Li Qiang took her to find a teahouse nearby.
"What's wrong?" As soon as he entered the private room, Li Qiang noticed something was wrong with the female beggar's reaction, so he couldn't help but ask.
The female beggar shook her head after hearing this, "It's nothing. It's my first time entering a place like this, so I feel a little uncomfortable. You... better ask questions quickly!"
"Okay, first question, what is your name?"
"Xu Yan, but everyone who knows me calls me Yanzi."
"Well, the second question is, since you are all making a living on the street, why don't you join the Pole Gang?"
"Because the Pole Gang won't let you pick your wallet."
"Oh, is that so? Then the third question comes, why did you pick your wallet?"
"I need money, lots and lots of money."
"What do you want so much money for?"
Xu Yan didn't want to think about it but asked: "Do you know the Chen family shack?"
Of course Li Qiang knew that it was a famous slum area on the outskirts of Fengtian City, so he nodded truthfully.
"I grew up there. As long as I can remember, I have wanted to build an orphanage to take in children like me who have no fathers or mothers. This has been my only wish since I was a child."
"Orphanage? It is indeed a great wish, but it is used in the wrong way." Having said this, Li Qiang paused for a moment, and then continued, "I can help you fulfill your wish, but the condition is that starting from today, you must help
I'll do something. Are you willing?"
Before she finished speaking, Xu Yan blurted out without even thinking: "No, I don't want to!"
"Why? Didn't you just say that building an orphanage has been your wish since childhood?"
"Yes, but I will never accept sympathy or charity from anyone!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang couldn't help but be stunned, and then he couldn't help but secretly thought in his heart: He didn't expect that a little beggar and pickpocket would have such a strong self-esteem. Perhaps, this was the real reason why she refused to join the Gangzi Gang!
Thinking of this, Li Qiang already had a calculation in his mind, "In that case, you do things for me and I pay you wages. Will you accept it?"
"Accept it! As long as you dare to ask, I dare to do it!"
"Okay, that's cool enough! From now on, you are mine, come with me!"
"Where to go?"
"peace restaurant!"
…
Half an hour later, Li Qiang's roar resounded throughout the lobby of the Peace Hotel.
"You stinky beggar! You actually stole the things you stole from your grandfather!"
With just one sentence, everyone's attention was attracted, and they saw Li Qiang grabbing a beggar in ragged clothes and shouting at the top of his lungs.
Xu Yan, the beggar who was being held, struggled desperately and shouted: "I didn't steal! You...you are slanderous!"
"You've already been caught by me and you still dare to speak harshly, right? Let's see how I deal with you today!" After saying that, he slapped her twice in front of everyone, making everyone gasp.
Cool air.
But even so, no one came forward to intercede. After all, the people who could enter and leave the Peace Hotel were all respectable people. In their opinion, it was really unworthy to stand up for a beggar. They all watched Xu Yan being raped.
Li Qiang was forced into the elevator.
"I'll tell you, brother, where did you sing this song from?" Gu Xiaomeng couldn't help but joked when she saw that Li Qiang brought back a living person soon after he left.
Li Qiang smiled and said, "This is called preparedness! Come on, let me introduce you. Her name is Xu Yan, and she will work with me from now on."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xiaomeng immediately took the initiative to say hello, "Sister Xu Yan, right? My name is Gu Xiaomeng."
"Just call me Yanzi."
As she was talking, Xu Yan suddenly felt an inexplicable chill coming from behind, and then she realized that someone was looking at her constantly.
Looking back, I happened to bump into Haitang's sharp eyes that seemed to see through everything, so I subconsciously avoided it.
"how old are you?"
"Ten...fifteen, no, sixteen!"
As soon as these words came out, Haitang glanced at Li Qiang intentionally or unintentionally, and the latter immediately turned his head to the side as if nothing had happened, as if it was none of his business.
After giving Li Qiang a hard look, Haitang simply asked how the two met.
After hearing this, Xu Yan quickly looked at Li Qiang, and after seeing him nodding in agreement, she stumbled and recounted the entire incident in detail.
After hearing this, Gu Xiaomeng couldn't help but said: "Wow! Build an orphanage for homeless children who have lost their parents. What a great wish! Don't you think so, Sister Haitang?"
"Well, to be fair, it is indeed rare." Haitang nodded affirmatively at first, and then suddenly changed the subject, "But have you ever thought about it, if you just leave with him, those people in the Chen family shack will follow you to make a living.
What should I do with my half-grown child?”
"Of course I have thought about it. Before I leave, I plan to use all the money I saved to give them some points. As for the rest, they have to rely on themselves. I can control them for a while, but I can't control them for a lifetime.
?”
"Well, that's a good answer. It seems that your mind is quite clear. It would be a pity to only use it to pick out your wallet. Well, you'd better keep your money. As for the child in the Chen family shack, it's up to me.
Come and arrange it for you."
"this……"
Seeing that Xu Yan was still hesitant, Li Qiang, who had already guessed that Haitang's move was actually to help the Fengtian Intelligence Station that was about to be established to recruit personnel, hurriedly advised: "Stop hesitating, Yanzi, believe me, no matter what, it will be easy."
Let them continue to make a living on the streets, right?"
After Li Qiang said so, Xu Yan put down all her worries and nodded in agreement, "Okay, thank you Sister Haitang."
However, before he finished speaking, Gu Xiaomeng on the side stopped, "I object! Brother Ming, my Gu family also has a lot of property in Fengtian, so I should be the one to settle those children, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Haitang immediately became sullen and said angrily: "Smelly girl, why are you arguing with me about this? You know I..."
"I just want to give those children a good home, can't I?"
"you!"
"Okay, okay, you two, please stop arguing. Since you both want to contribute, let each of you take half. Is that okay?"
